Studio

A photographic studio is both a workspace
and a corporate body. As a workspace it is much like an
artist’s studio, but providing space to take, develop,
print and duplicate photographs. Photographic training
and the display of finished photographs may also be accommodated
in a photographic studio. Accordingly, the workspace may
possess a darkroom, storage space, a studio proper - where
photographs are taken, and a display room, as well as
space for other related work.

As a corporate entity, a photographic studio is a business
owned and represented by one or more photographers, possibly
accompanied by assistants and pupils, who create and sell
their own and sometimes others’ photographs.

Since the early years of the 20th century the corporate
functions of a photographic studio have increasingly been
called a “photographic agency,” leaving the
term “photographic studio” to refer almost
exclusively to the workspace.
